Eco-literary advocacy reconnects people emotionally and spiritually to the Earth.

It reminds us that language isn’t just descriptive - it’s creative.

It helps us not just explain the world, but reimagine it.

The way we speak about the world shapes the way we treat it.

Hi! I’m Marla Lise,

An earthling, weaving my love for stories, dreams, and adventure into a mission to protect the planet - regenerating, reeducating, and reimagining for a better future.

I’m not here for profit - I’m here for purpose.
What started as a childhood love for animals has grown into a lifelong mission to protect the ecosystems they belong to, and to help others find their purpose in service of people and planet.

Each of us has a gift to offer. Ready to use yours for change?

Good! Because it’s time to write the eco chapter.

Marla is good at condensing the craftwork that goes into good writing, and has helped me recover from eco fatigue. I feel much more motivated to write now.”

“Let me start by remembering you that you are force of nature. You are doing an incredible work with a level of dedication that is amazing.”

“Marla Lise you embody love, compassion, tenacity, and vision. Even when the path is full of obstacles, you tap deep into your heart and have the wisdom to follow it - and to blaze the trail for the rest of us.”

Marla is such a great facilitator, she makes writing so much more accessible and enjoyable, highly recommend!

Come write your eco chapter!

Every meaningful change begins inside: with the courage to ask who you are, what brings you joy, and what you believe in.
This is the work of reeducation: learning to hear your voice again and learning about the reality of the world around us.

When your inner world aligns with your values, you begin to live and act with integrity.
That’s regeneration in motion - starting with yourself, regenerating more mindful ways of living.

And when your story reflects your truth, you don’t just speak - you reimagine what's possible for yourself and for others too. Reimagining better future narratives.

This is how we work:

  • from the inner self to the outer self,

  • from personal clarity to collective change,

  • from individual insight to People, Planet, and Purpose in action.

The Eco Chapter is here to guide that journey.
Because stories shape systems, language can lead transformation, and a better world can exist in a better vocabulary.
